Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup milk
- 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and milk.
Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a boil.
Boil the mixture for 1 minute, stirring constantly to ensure it does not burn.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the creamy peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and fully combined.
Add the quick-cooking oats to the saucepan and mix well until the oats are evenly coated in the chocolate mixture.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
Drop spoonfuls of the cookie mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to speed up the setting process.
Once set, remove the cookies from the parchment paper and enjoy!
Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
